' Mentalism '...

Mentalism leads neither to solipsism (one's own existence is the only existence) nor to Hindu Advaita's denial of the World's existence.

The first is a misreading and consequent misunderstanding of it caused by a failing to see that the individual ego is itself a projection of Mind.

The second fails to see that as an experience in the field of awareness of that ego, as a given and fundamental idea in that consciousness, it is a coexistent and not to be denied without impairing sanity.
